On Saturday, the Indian Government gave a signal to the extradition
of NRI Maninder Pal Singh Kohli to Britain in the murder and rape
case of British school girl Hannah Foster, 17. The government
official said it favoured his extradition to the UK for facing
the trial.
The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) officials present the
case before Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Kamini Lau
that the conduct of the fugitive criminal in fleeing from one
place to another clearly establishes a prima facie case against
him warranting his trial in the UK.
The Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate (ACMM) posted the
matter for May 14 for Kohli to respond the stand taken by MEA
on the request of its British counterpart. This date was fixed
for more clirification from MEA.
